G-Dragon admits to smoking marijuana in Japan

Reports have been released that Big Bang's G-Dragon has been caught for smoking marijuana by the authorities. According to the police, G-Dragon was caught smoking in May of 2011. When investigators had prompted for a drug test in July, the urine test results came back negative. However, with further tests, the results were overturned and G-Dragon confessed to smoking marijuana at a club in Japan.

G-Dragon released a statement saying that he "smoked a cigarette someone had given [him] at a club". However, he continues on to admit that the smell "was different" and he was "suspicious it was marijuana" but continued to smoke it regardless.

Because G-Dragon has no prior record or offences, the police decided to give him a warning as the amount of marijuana smoked was very little.
